Rational Sino-US trade talks only way forward

Finding solutions is the only way for China and the US to move forward, US-China Business Council Director Roberta Lipson said during an exclusive video interview in Beijing.

"Talk with each other, not at each other. Be rational in the approach and make use of tried-and-true mechanisms we've had in the past for dialogue on various levels. In the end, we need to find a solution that's right for both people in both countries," Lipson said.

Many useful collaborations between US and Chinese medical technology companies have taken place in recent years, Lipson said, and she is optimistic for China-US relations in the future. Current tensions between the two countries will be overcome and things will continue to develop in a smooth way, she added.
